Culinary Goddess in Training Step by Step Directions:

1. Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees or whatever the pie crust directions say.

2. Take one package of the pie crust out of the freezer. Open the package and separate the two pie crusts, removing and discarding the wax paper. Leave on the counter to let them defrost.

3. Empty the frozen packages of corn, peas & carrots into your mixing bowl, so it defrosts a bit for easy stirring.

4. Cook the chicken in a frying pan using Pam Spray, so the chicken won’t stick to the pan.

5. Cut the chicken into tiny pieces.

6. Add the chicken to your mixing bowl.

7. Open & drain the can of sliced potatoes.

8. Add the potatoes to your mixing bowl.

9. Open the Cambell’s Family Sized Cream of Chicken Soup.

10. Pour the soup into your mixing bowl.

11. Open the Qt. of Lite Cream.

12. Pour ¾ of the Lite Cream container into your mixing bowl. (Eyeball it)

13. Mix the ingredients together in your mixing bowl using an uber large mixing spoon.

14. Once completely mixed – a.k.a. creamy – take out the other package of frozen pie crust out of the freezer.

15. Open the pie crust package and separate the two pie crusts - removing and discarding the wax paper.

16. Add the pie filling (a.k.a. the ingredients you just mixed) into the 2 frozen pie crusts. The pie filling will be the exact amount needed to fill the two deep dish frozen pie crusts! (Yay for us!)

17. Prepare for trouble with step 18. (You may need support or an additional culinary goddess in training.)

18. Take 1 defrosted pie crust and 1 filled pie crust and somehow manage to put the defrosted pie crust on top of the pie filling. (Unless you are a culinary goddess with a skillful hand, this step will fall apart on you – literally!) But don’t worry; you can easily use bits of your crumbled defrosted pie crust to fill in the empty spaces! (Your disheveled, crumbled looking pot pie, will spread once it cooks!)

19. Repeat step 18 with your 2nd pot pie.

20. Prepare for trouble with step 21. (You may need support or an additional culinary goddess in training.)

21. Take small pieces of foil, (a.k.a. shred thin pieces of foil) and foil the edges of the pot pie. *Do not put foil across the entire pot pie – only around the edges. This will help prevent the edges from burning! (As a side note, I usually only cook one pot pie and cover the other with foil and refrigerate it for another day. So, depending how many people you are feeding this is a good option!)

22. Once the edges are foiled, take a knife and cut small lines on top of the pot pie, so it can breathe while cooking.

23. Place the pot pie on a cookie tray and put on the middle rack of the oven.

24. Set the timer for 30 minutes.

25. When the timer beeps, check the pot pie & re-slice the small lines, so that the pot pie cooks thoroughly inside.

26. Reset the timer for another 30 minutes.

27. When the timer beeps, your pot pie should appear to have come alive as the pie crust will be bubbling from underneath the top of the pie. If this isn’t the case and if the top of the pot pie doesn’t look somewhat brown, then leave in for a few more minutes, checking it often!

28. Once it’s browned and bubbly – remove the foil, serve, and devour the best chicken pot pie you’ve ever had!

29. Rejoice as your Culinary Goddess in Training Recipe is a success!

30. Repeat steps 21-29 if you are cooking the other pot pie that was refrigerated.
